What is the original source of hydroelectric energy

Physics
1 answer:
tangare [24]3 years ago
6 0

Differences in land elevation result in rainfall runoff, and allow some of the original solar energy to be captured as hydro-electric power (Figure 1). Hydro power is currently the world's largest renewable source of electricity, accounting for 6% of worldwide energy supply or about 15% of the world's electricity.

hope this helps

A package was determined to have a mass of 5.7 kilograms. What's the force of gravity acting on the package on earth?
Arturiano [62]
1.) The force of gravity is what we call weight, we define it as:
w=mg
w=5,7kg*9,8m/s²
w=55,86kg (b)
2.) We know that:
power=W/t
power=50J/20s
power=2,5Watts (a)
3.) The work done is equal to the potential energy, so:
Epg=mgh
Epg=63kg*9,8m/s²*7m
Epg=4321J
Now we get the power:
power=W/t
power=4321J/5s
power=864Watts
Now:
1HP=746Watts
=1,16HP (b)
4.) We know that:
F=ma
350N=m*10m/s²
m=350N/10m/s²
m=35kg (b)
5.) d.) Aceleration is tha rate of change in velocity, either positive (increasing) or negative (decreasing)

What type of units can be used for measurement?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Measurements most commonly use the International System of Units (SI) as a comparison framework. The system defines seven fundamental units: kilogram, metre, candela, second, ampere, kelvin, and mole.

A beaker of negligible heat capacity contains 456 g of ice at -25.0°C. A lab technician begins to supply heat to the container a
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

176 min

Explanation:

456 g = .456 kg

Specific heat of ice s = 2093 J kg⁻¹

Heat required to raise the temperature by 25 degree

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature.

= .456 x 2093 x 25

=23860 J

Heat required to melt the ice to make water at zero degree

= mass x latent heat

= .456 x 334 x 10³

=152304 J

Total heat required = 152304 + 23860 = 176164 J .

Time Required = Heat required / rate of supply of heat

= 176164 / 1000

176.16 min
